American Neutrality OMcially Upheld. San FRANCISCO, Cal., Nov. 8, 1874, ‘The following 1s a summary of the news brought by the steamship China, from China and Japan :— Yononama, Oct, 14, 1874, The Chinese question remains unsettled, but the most recent intelligence 1s peaceful, Japanese war preparations, nevertheless, continue without mterruption, Arrangements are perfected for the transportation of 70,000 troops in case they are Beeded for active service. Bodies o1 citizens from all the provinces are sending petitions to be en- rolled in the army or navy. A proclamation promising safety to Chinese resi- dents has just appeared, consequently the anxiety of the Chinese Is relieved, UNITED STATES MINISTER BINGHAM 1s again demanding the removal of Americans from the Formosa service. He asserts his right to prevent Mr. Wasson ‘rom returning there, but de- clines to exercise his authority, and insists that the Japanese government shall restrain him. Thus far bis demand has not been acceded to. REGISTRATION FOR MILITARY PURPOSES, A registration of Japanese subjects has been ordered with a view to possible future military service.

WasSHINGTON, Nov. 8, 1874, Wiews of Republican Congressmen in Washington—The Meeting of the Forty-fourth Congress—Its Effect on the Political Future. None of the few Republican Congressmen now in Washington favor a revival of the act convening Congress on the 4th of March. The sentiment which has shaped the desire has arisen trom the beltei that two long sessions wil! kill the Democratic Party. Besides, the influence of the first session, if such influence ts to follow, would be felt at the elections next fall, whereas tf the Forty-fourtn Congress does not assemble until December, 1875, the effect will not oe felt until the next Con- gressional and Presidential election. Some of the democratic members of the present Congress are in favor of the Forty-fourth Congress next March, | 80 that the score of investigation against the ad- ministration may be set on 10ot immediately. Members ot the House Appropriation Committee ‘will meet here this week to advance the work oming before Congress in December. Mr. Stark- weather, of Connecticut, a member of the com- mittee, who has not yet felt the tidal wave, says the recent elections will not change the course of the committee, who are to recommend appropria- tions for the fiscal year ot 1875-6, covering one-half Of the time of the existence of the Forty-fourth Congress. The Secretary of War Refases Ordnance for a Democratic Salute. It has been the custom of the War Department to loan to responsible parties a battery for the purpose of firing salutes, which are not always of & political character. Yesterday some leading democrats called upon the Secretary of War to get bis consent to a loan of ordnance, and were in- formed that he had adopted a new rule and should Tefuse the request. The only harm the visitors ‘Wished the Secretary was that he might remain in office long enough to be able to refuse a similar request two years hence. A battery will arrive to-morrow from Baltimore, and the salute in honor of the victory will be fired suffictentiy near the White House to remind the President of what has recently happened to Cesarism, and the Managers say they will not “be brief,” either, The Postmaster General Annuls a New Regulation. The Postmaster General, it is understood, finds the position taken by him in refusing to transact business with the attorneys and agents of rail- Toads and steamboat companies untenabie, and has accordingly recognized the agent of the Erie Railroad, who was the first object of the Post- master General’s displeasure. Changes in Naval Regulations. The Secretary of the Navy contemplates making several changes in naval regulations, one of which ‘will be to change the title of commandant of mid- shipmen at the Navab Academy to commandant of cadets. He also proposes to make some change in uniform so as to restore the bands on seamen’s shirt collars and the stripe on officers’ collars, * A Capitol Policeman Elected to Con= gress—An Instance of Human Grati- tude. Perhaps the most remarkable incident of the recent elections was the elevation of a colored man, member of the Capitol police, to the position of memoer of the Forty-fourth Congress, The present member from the Columbia (South Caro lina) district, J. H. Rainey, also colored, got Samuel Lee, a constituent, the indolent position of lounger about the Capitol. Mr. Lee was indebted to Rainey and the latter thought that a leave of absence from the onerous duties of a Capitol policeman would be pleasing to Lee and profitable to Rainey. Lee went home and suc- ceded in getting the opposition nomination and will bow his benefactor out of Congress. What an illustrious personage Lee will be in tne democratic assemblage! Not only had he been a slave, buta guardian of the Forty-third Congress APAOHES SHOOT AN ARMY OFFIOER, San FRancrsco, Nov. 8, 1874, Lieutenant Charles King, of the Fi(tn cavairy, was shot aud dangerously wounded, near the Colorado Chiquito River, recently, by Apaches, TES OONGRESSIONAL DELEGATE FROM ARIZONA, SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 8, 1874, 4H.

A Private Watotman in Cincinnati Beaten to Death and Thrust into a Fiery Furnace— The Corpse Consumed—The Supposed Murder.rs Arrested—strong Circumstantial Evidence. Crncinnatt, Ohio, Nov. 8, 1874. One of those sensational horrors that will quicken the blood of any community occurred here last night at ten o’clock, but did not come to Mght until seven o'clock th's morning. It happened im the yard of @ tannery in the centre of the northern part of the city, corner of Livingston street and Uamble alley. It was the Murder of an uDmarried man, twenty-six years 0! age, named Herman Schilling, who was em- ployed in the tannery and slept in one of the out- houses next to the stable, acting as private watch- man. He was attacked by two men, it is sup- Posed, who stabbed nim with a stable fork and beat him with clubs pnt! he was dead or insensi- ble. He straggied with them in the small stable Until overpowered. The blood marks show that they must have fought around and under the horse that was standing there, a dumb witness of the horror, 4 ROASTED CORPSE. They dragged him a distance of thirty or forty feet to the furnace, opened an iron door about fiiteen inches square and jammed him through into a hot-air chamber under the boller, the grate of which, acting like an oven, consumed bim beyond all chance of recognition, When the remains were found this morning and dragged out, they were in fragments. The trunk was shrivelled, charred and completely baked. There ‘Was but little of the skull left, ana the thigh bones were taken out separately, with but little flesh left on them; also the bones of fingers, toes, &c. TWO MEN WERE ARRESTED on suspicion, under strong circumstantial evi- dence. The first one arrested is Andrew Egner, a | German, forty-three years of age, keeper of a saloon and doing business in a cooper shop im- Mediately adjoining the stable, Schilling, the mur- dered man, boarded with Egner last spring. He ‘Was accused of having seduced Egner’s daughter, sixteen years of age, and of being the father of a child with which sie was pregnant, While Schill ing had no: dented that he had intercourse with this girl he had declared that he was not ihe only man nor the first. On the 6th of June this girl died in the hospital of the city in childbed. On that day Egner and his son, a boy ot fifteen years, attacked Schilling with clubs io this same yard and bruised him badly. Had not assistance come to him they would have Killea him, Egner was fined $5 in the Police Court, and heid in bonds of $200 to keep the peace, but he swore then and repeatedly aiter that ne would kill Schilling when @ chance should offer. The second man arrested is George Rufer, also employed in the tunnery. There is evidence tiat he was hanging around the piuce shortly. before the murder. When arrested this alternoon his lace was found tu be badly scratched, which he Bays was done by bis wile last night. There are also evidences of fist blows on his eyes aud fore- head. He and Egner were together last night, drinking in Egner’s saloon, There is a diiference of hours in their stories ag to the time of their separation. They doth deny any knowleage what- ever of the affair, The most remarkable teature Of this thing, next to tne hideous completeness of the murder, 18 tne fact that but ior the stupidity @f a sixteen-year-old boy SCHILLING'S LIPE MIGHT HAVE BREN SAVED, or, at least, his murderers caught on the spot. ‘Ths boy was in the act of soing to bed in his room in & building within forty feet of the place when he heard the noise of a scifie and as of a man choking. He ran down to the alley and shouted through the fence to Schilling, “Herman, is that you? pemiling answered “Yes,” ana that somebody was killing him. This remarkable spect- men of a young German-Americad. who 1s big and stout enough to handle any ordinary map, states that he shouted “Watch!” walked arouna the square, could not find a policeman, tailed to men- ton the circumstance to a private watchman wno | Was standing near by, came back to the place, yelled to the murderers to quit, a3 the police were on hand. went to bed, and never spoke of the affuir to anybody until this morning, when, like @ good son, be told his ; mother.

The Conduct of Merrill and Other Army OMcers Alarming the War Depart- ment=The Cutting of the Telegraph Wires—An Investigation Ordered. | New ORLEANS, Nov. 8, 1874, The War Department has evidently become alarmed at the operations of Merrill, McIntosh and Hodgson in the Red River parishes, in cut ting telegraph wires and acting unlike honorabie soldiers, A very sharp letter to the department has been written by President Urton, of the Western Union Telegraph Company, demanding why, in the time of peace, their wires were cut, Emory for report, who, some days ago, insti- tuted inquiries, but to-day detailed General Henry A. Morrow, by order of the department, to pro- ceed there and make 4 special report into all tne circumstances. He left to-night on his mission. General Morrow is the Lieutenant Colonel of the Thirteenth infantry, who, as the Commandant at Salt Lake during the Mormon troubles, gave such general satisiaction, and it 18 believed that he will render an impartial report. FIRE AT NEW UTRECHT. Fort HaMILton, Nov. 8, 1874. The barn and outbuildings of Supervisor Gub- ner, at New Utrecht, took fire at about one o’ciock this morning and were totally destroyed. The dwelling house was saved with much dimcuity. | The loss is about $5.00, The bulidings were to- sured Jor $1,000 in the Germania Insurance Com- pany. The cause of the fire has not been dis | covered, OORNER STONE OEREMONIES IN SYRACUSE, SyRacusE, Nov. 8, 1874, The corner stone of St. Mary’s Cathollc church, | corner of Onondaga and Montgomery streets, of which Dr. O'Hara is pastor, was lald to-cay with imposing ceremonies by Bishop Lynch, ot South Caroling, An immense procession, composed of ail the Cathoite societies of the city, marched to the church headed by bands, A a delegation of Catholic clergymen from ovher cities ee people witnessed the laying of | things a young one, iucited by is mischievous Verdi's popular opera was the attraction at the Grand Opera House last night, the cast being as follows:—Violetta, Mile, Heilbron; Alfredo, Signor Bentratelli; Germont, Signor Tagliapietra; Mar- quis, Mr, Hail; Doctor, Signor Scolara; Flora, which attended the representation of Faust” on the Sunday previous, a very large proportion being Germans, The Violetta of Mile. Heilbron has many attractive leatures, the light music being we:l adapted to her voice, She sang the aria at the end of the first act, “An! forse lul,’”” with much brililancy and in the dying scene at the conclusion of the opera she invested the role with rare grace and delicacy. ‘Ihe tenor’s voice and styie last evening did not make the part of Aliredo particularly interesting. The barytone has a noble voice, rather heavy in tone Jor the music of Germont, and one that tn lyric chacacters of 4 high kind must make ttself ieit to advantage. The quality o1 the voice is metallic, but exceedingly sonorous, and the schoolts of the ya) Italian type. M, Behrens proved himself to 2 an experienced chef dorchesire, and the chorus, with the exception of a chaotic rendering of “Largo al quadrnpedo” behind the scenes, may be commended. Mr. Strakosch intends to make these Sunday operatic performances & permanent institution, Verdi's “‘Messa di Requicm” at St. Ste- phen’s Church. ‘The interest attached to the last worm of Verdi, bis tribute to the memory of Manzoni, one of bis Most distinguished compatriots, seems to increase in the public mind, for at its second performance last night, under the direction of M. Louis Da- chaner, witn Miles, Corradi and Gomien and Messrs, Fritsch and Blum as soloists, Mr. Tuily as organist and with a picked chorus, the immense church of St. Stephen’s was well filled, We have little to add to our previous remarks on the performance, as 1t was in many respects the ssme as at St. Ann’s church. There were many new features of excellence in the rendering of tue choruses, promptness of attack und we! marked phrasing, witu a iair degree of expression being noticeable. ‘The soloists weré avout’ the same as beiore, the ladies singing their very dim- cals music with an intelligence and finisa tnat are the attributes only of accomplished artists, tne tenor being very nervous and the baritone steady and reliable. The organ ac- companiment of Mr. ‘Tully was the least satisfac- tory part of the periormance. His combinations were not happily chosen, and no idea could be formed of those wondertul effects in tne orchestra- tion of the mass 0: which we have heard so much, ‘Yhe overpowering effects in the ‘Dies Ire,” typl- cal 01 the dread vay oi judgment, and the highly aescriptive solos, ducts, irios and quartets that are scattered through this nam. ber excited much attention. M. Dachauer is entitled to praise for the excellent use he has made Of the materials at his disposal, ‘he music is very trying iu vote passages, and imperatively demands good readers ind careful rehearsals, | When 36 is presented in the Academy of Music in | acomplete jorm, with fulichorus and orcnestra and the principal artists of Mr. Strakosch’s come pany, it cannoc fall to be a great attraction, Stadt Theatre—German Opera Bouffe, When the curtain raised upon the first act of “Barbe Bleue’? at the Stadt Theatre last evening there was not @ vacant seat in the house. The fame of Miss Lina Meyer appoarsto have preceded her, and the vast auditorium last night seemed scarcely adequate to accommodgte those who | came to see her act and to hear her sing. Possessed, as the German prima donna is, ofa superb figure and a sweet, flexivie voice, she was the recipient Ol numerous encores, and was called | before tue curtain at the cluse of every act.

Concert at the Srooklyn Academy o Music. A grand sacred concert for the pecuniary bene- fitor the Caurch of St. Marg of the Immaculate Conception, was given last night in the Brooklyn Academy o! Music. The programme was such as to attract an immense audience, as the efforts ot Mile. Violetta Colville, and the performances of Gtlmore’s Twenty-second Regiment Band were in- | cluded in it. The concert was certainly a success flattering to Father MacDonald, the pastor of St, Mary’s church, and beneficial to the treasury of the congregation ; and it also had a pleasing side jor the eyes of the performers, ‘The audience was easily wrought up to the highest pitch of enthusiasm. It ‘rewarded Gil- more’s band {or its fine rendering of the over- tures to “Overon” and “William Teil’ with en- | cores, and Messrs, Arbuckle and Lefebre tor their | cornet and saxophone solos, ‘the audieuce showered upou Miss Colville the choicest flowers apna recalied her time and again, Miss Colville first sang an aria irom “{ Puritani,”” aud on bemg recalled sang “Katuleen Mavour- ueen.” in the second pare of the concert she | first rendered the ronuo, “Oh, luce ai quest | \ i anima,” irom “Linda di Chamvunix,” ana aiter- ward the very simple ballad, ‘Piease Give Me @ Penny, Sit.” The Liederkranz Concert. | Last night the first concert of the Liederxranz, | season 1874-75, was given in the grand ball | of the club house, in East Fourth street. The audience, ike all those which this society calls | together, was intelugent and fashionable. A re- remarkably large number of ladies were pres ent, some in evening dress, and the scene in the hall was @ brilliant one. The concert was given under the direction of Herr A. Paur, whose efforts on behalf of the society have helped to Make both it and himself tamous.

This great east side resort was last nignt filled to overflowing by a peculiarly happy and orderly assemblage. It is tre spot in which the middle or working Classes of the city find amusement on | Sunday night. Like the gardens of Berlin and Vienna, they have here music and some sort of | mimic periormance every Sunday night, Comic | songs are 8UR2, good beer 1s drunk and vile cigars | are smoked—all with a zest tuatis truly astonish- ing. The audience is made up of very peculiar elements, The “sport,” the clerk, the mechanic and the paterfamitias mingle together in the great hail with fraternal ease and condescen- | sion, The “sport” with his “lady,” the | clerk with his sweetheart, the mechanic with his Susan (whose Sunday ont it is), and | the benefactor of the Commonwealth with lla frau and numberiess kinder are all tne folk to be seen.

The management of the Bowery Theatre took the opportunity of presenting to a large audience last night two dramas of the emotional and sensational school, which met, on the whole, with a somewhat indifferent reception, but which at particular points were greeted with no littl applause. The first of the two so-called emotional plays was denominated as “Moll Pitcher, the Fortune [eller of Linn,” in which Mrs, W. G, Jones and Mr. M. J, Cogswell as- sumed the leading réles, but tn which neither evinced a much higher order of dramatic talent than the most insignificant ta the company which assisted them. Even those who had come to the Bowery willing to applaud these two leading char- acters iound but litte opportunity to evince their good intentions, for the play of “Moll Pitcher” was stupid and heavy throughout, and but very indi. ferentiy put upon the stage. Mr. Edwin Barry, as Elliston, made his trst appearance, but failed, not only to fulfil the possibtiities, but even the ordi- nary requirements of his part. It was only af the conclusion of the play, and upon the grouping of the characters in the final sensational and startling tableaux that Snything like enthusiasm was sroused. The lay which jollowed was an adaptation trom Weber's opera ot! “Der Freischutz,” which was creditable enough tn the incantation scene. to evince :ome consideration upon the part of the Management for the public who frequent the Bowery, and which elicited considerable applause. There ‘is bat little doubt that the majority of the audience which last night poured froin this thea- tre were satisfied with what they saw. MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC NOTES, Mr. S, B.

To THEY EDITOR OF THE HERALD:— Desiring to see Miss Cushman at her final Pperiormance I purchased an admission ticket, being unable to obtain a reserved seat, unless by paying an exorbitant speculator’s price. On ar- riving at the theatre [ found that the nolders of such admission iicketd were not even to be al- lowed the privilege of looking through the doors in rear of the dress circle, the passage benind | which was occupied by camp chairs—a violation of the law regarding sa/ety in theatres.

Serious Sunday Morning Stabbing Af~ frny—A Man’s Life Jeoparded for Twenty Cents. In spite of the vigilance of the Newark aytnori- ties, the Sunday anti-liquor selling law is en- forced in such a manner that liquor can be had with just as much ease as ever, and at all hours, even as early as three o’clock A.M. Yesterday moroing, between three and four o'clock, the saloon kept by one Keegan in Union street was run- Ding Without bindrance, Among the early morn- ing imbibers there were James Henderson and Henry Grant, besides some cronies of theirs, It seems that Graut nad “set them up”’—that is, | treated tne crowd—and the barkeeper pushed across the bar his change, twenty cents, Hender- son snatched this up. Words ensued and then a row, Which was adjourned out of doors and along as lar as Prospect street. Grant had two or three iriends with him and Henderson twice as many. Henderson called Grant “a cur’? and other oppro brious epithets, This brougnt on a fight, im the course of Which, as alicgeu, Henderson whipped ! out a knife and stabbed Grant twice, in the neck and imthe back near the spine, inflicting a very severe wound im tne latter place. Fearing that be had killed Grant, Henderson and his | iriends fled. Grant was removed to St. Michael's Hospital ana there properly cared for. His wounds are considered serious, but not danger- ous. A police magistrate took his statement, in which he declared Henderson stabbed him. Tho police started in pursuit of Henderson, who was arrested abont tweive o'clock yesterday by Ser- geant Sinith and Detective McManus. He admits the stabbing, but says he acted in seli-delence. He was heid to await the result ot Grant’s wounds. There were also arrested as witnesses Charles Farrow, Peter Riley, Bugeve J, Kyan and | Frank McCarrol.

Thomas Miller. the English Author. {From the London News, Oct. 27.) Mr. Thomas Miller. the author of “Gideon Giles," “Royston Gower,” “Godfrey Malvern,” and other tales, besides a long catalogue of delightiul coun- try books and some volumes of remarkably sweet and pure poetry, died early on Sunday morning, at bis residence in New street, Kennington Park Road, He had been in & more or less precarious state of health for some time past, but his last iiness commenced with a paralytic attack about atortnight ago. His facher, George Miller, was @ wharfinger at Gainsborough, and his mother the daughter of a Mayor of Lincoln; but through fam- ily misfortunes, among which the early loss of his father was included, he began life as @ basket Maker at Nottingham. It 1s stated, indeed, om good authority that ne was employed as a ploughe boy.. He lived in his boyhvod in Sailors’ alley, Gainsborough, and Mr. Thomas’ Cooper, thq Chartist, autnor of the “Purgatory of Sutcides," lived at the same time in the same poor alley Miller’s first work was a volume o! poems, “‘Songe of the Sea Nymphs,” published while he was yet @ basketmaker’s apprentice. he aiterward—har ing im the Meanwhile, however, started ig business for himseli-came up ‘to Londot impelled by @ Gesire to earn literary fame, His first prose book was the “Day in the Wooas,’’ which waa received as a work of original genius, being tavorabiy reviewed by the Literary Gazette, a great literary authority af that time, and ajso, we believe, by the Times, the Atheneum, and the London press generally. He became from thas tume @ trequent guest at the Countess of Blessington’s and an intl mate triend of Moofe, Rogers, Campbell, and Miss Landon. 18 subsequent works are two numerous to catafogue here. “ihe Beauites of the Country,” “Pictures of Country Lite,” and Rural Sketches, are among the best of his pastoral works; but perhaps his highest efforts are to be tound in his ms and in nis earlier povels— “Gideon Giles, jodtrey Maivern,” and “Royston Gower” having been the most wide.y popular, AS, Qu instance of aman raising himsell irom @ very humble sphere to become both a literary and & personal favorite in the most refined’ and } discrimmating circles, Mr. Miller 13 certainly withe } Out & Modern parallel; for in addition to the poets Whose names We have mentioued above he waa intimate vitn and admired by Thackeray, Disraeh, Leigh Hunt, Jerrold, and many of the finest minds of his time, For sume years past he has been in very straitened circumstances, but & memort for # pension—though headed by the names o} Lord Macau! Tennyson—met with no response: and it is to be regretted that, while so many mierior authors received a pene sion, the writer of such a work as “Gideon Giles" should have been refused one. His most enduri) fame Will probably be chat earned by his poetry, which excelled in sweetness and simplicity, “The Old Fountain” and “The Kventng Hymn” have won the admiration of the most critival judges, the latter piece having been a peculiar favorite with Samuel Rogers, much of whose munificent kindness was atiribated by the author bimsell ta Rogers’ appreciation of that poem.
